" The torce of the enemy has-been much exag gerated, yet it' is certainly great, and their army, in point of numbers, isinueli superior to' t hecombined • armies, and when it. shall . have-been joined by the Preneh Division which it is said has entered Spain,. it will be 'necessary to take every precaution, and act with the greatest military circumspection. Should a general action take place, the only - thing which can, perhaps, compel bur army to retreat, is its being flanked by some of the Small French corps. r.lesertiou is still frequent, which is in general attri buted to the long inaction of the French. I have seen a letter from an Officer who holds a distin guished situation in the artny,:in which he gives it as his deeMed ()Onion, that no serious, attack will be attempted in this country before the middle of next month. ."

I INSTALL,ITION OF 'LORD GREIIII7IELE. • [Further Details of the Proceedings on Tuesday.l - The Chancellor, with the Heads of 'Hotles, Itollors of Divinity, Law, and Physic, &c. arrived at the Theatre, in procession; a little befOre eleven. Upon their entrance, the blrrd played abeantiful symphony; and an' opening' up the centre_of 'the area being made by the Marshals of the,procession, the various illustrious tharaaters . of WhOrti ii con sisted, marched slowly up towards the semi -circle: As they became visible to . the assembly, and parti• cularly to those in the upper gallery, by emerging from the shade of the orchestra (which immedi ately over the entrance, and oliposite the chair); shouts of applause, or murmurs of disapprobation prevailed, according to the pruvalence of Opinion among the spectators. The warm party contest,' which terminated in 'seating Lord Grenville in the dignified and elevated chair of the Chancellor of Oxford, haS by no means subsided ; and those who were digappointedind,de feated in that contest, thrrefore, availed themselves of this opportnnity of giving vent to their sPleeti -and ill humour. His Lordship was greeted with loud demonstrations of , rejoicing and respea, but. the partyliiss mingled with the applause. Among the members of the procession,we noticed Lord Grenville, dressed its .his Chancellor's Ribes, with a velvet cap and gold tassel ; the Vice-Chan- cellor, the Marquis of Worcesteroh e Earl of Clare, Lord Apsley, the Speaker of the . House of Com mons ; the HOn. Messrs. Eden," Finch, Ca m pb e ll , Bathurst, Douglas, Carleton, Crewe, &c. &c. ; the Earl De La. Warre, Lord Sondes, Lord Sidney Qs 7 - borne, Sir W. Scott, Sir John Aubrey, Sir Chqrles Pegge, Colonel Cursom, Mr. Saville, M.P. Mr, Shel 7 don, Dr.' Howley, Mr. Sotheby, 4arl.Speocer, Sir W. Wynne, Sir J.' Hippisley, and Other distinguish ed persons in their Doctor's robes, • Many young Noblemen belonging to the Uoi versity also formed a part of .tins splendid train, in their purple robes, trimmed with gold ; the Heads of Houses, &c. completed the strew, and the various - * members were received, on entermg, with distin guished marks of aprrobation or censure, as they happened to be agreeable or disagreeable .to the par tizans and political adherents, of Lord Grenville, or his Opponent, Lord Mon. The whole being seat ed, in the. elevated ;ensi-circle, to which, from the variety, and gorgeous richness of the cbsiiime, they gave a most splendid appearance, the Chancellor, okne'd the Convocation in the usual fbrmulq, by a short Latin speech. During the time the Chancellor was addressing the Meeting, all-those who came in the pnreeSBloll, snood ; Earl Spencer on the right of the Chancel lor, and Dr. Parsons, the Vice - Chancellor, on his left'. After his Lordship had finished reading the list of names, he sat down and put On his cap the Proctors did.the sante, being the only Privileged persons to be covered in the presence of the Chan, cellor, The band then played ,a very charming piece. After which,. the six Beadles entered again in pro cession, followed by a Doctor of Laws ; and those who were candidates to have that honnur conferred upon them. The Doctor, we nnder,tand to be Dr. Heber, of Brazen-nos., College. The Doctor addressed she Chancellor in a long Latin speech, recotntnending the personages who where candi dates fir the honour of being admitted Dodors of Cif it Law. The Chancellor rose from his chair, took off his cap, and answered the Do&or. The first candidate proposed was his Grace the Duke of Somerset, who being, informed by the Chancellor .he was adMitted a Doctor of Civil Law, of that Univeisity, bowed respectfully, and then approached towards the semicircle, the seat of the Dot:fors, where he was introduced to his seat by Dr. Parsons, the Vice-Chancellor, and one of the Proctors. • ~ • The other candidates for academic honours were immediately introduced and proposed, seriatim, ad ' cording to the above order, by Mr. Phillimore; who delivered a short complimentary oration in Latin, on presenting the, fist (the Duke of Somerset), which was however • generally applicable i and also an elegant encomium on Mr. Fagel, whose name closed the list. The various candidates were re ceived by the assembly, on their proposition, - in very different' manners. The greater number were welcomed with universal applause—sotue were more faintly cheered. The members 'tpf the Grenville family (Marquis of Buckingham, Earl Temple, and the Earl of Forti.scue) and Lord Abingdon, met with considerable marks 'of disapprobation=the 'three first from the party spirit above noticed; and. the last / as we understand, from-having given no small offence to The Oxonions, by his tenacity in the preservation of game, and other instances of re-. gularity, as Lord, of the Manor near Oxford, not very acceptable to the Students. On Ow proposi tion of Mr. Tierney, the clamour vv , ; very great, and we almost expelled that some Member of the Convocation would have pronounced aloud the dis agreeable word Veto; but the disapprobation being merely confined to the Bachelors, Graduates, & c. the Right Hon. Gentleman, after a considerable tu mult, was admitted, and took his seat as:a'Doctor of Civil Law. . • This ceremony being conclnded, another •sym phony was performed by the Orchestra, which Was most numerously and respe&ably filled. Dr. Crotch, the Professor of Music, of St. Mary's Hall, pre sided- most ably at the Organ j in his Academical • dress, which is one of the most beautiful and superb belonging to the University. Mr. Cramer led the Band; and among the vocal .perforicers present were, Madame Catalani, Mrs. Ashe, Bianchi, Vaughan, Storace, Mr. tßraharn, Bartleman, W. Knyvett, Src.; but of these, .only Mr. Bardeman, Mr. Emhart), and Madame Bianchi took part in the performance. The orchestra itself is very spacious, being a temporary eredion at the base of the build ing (which is nearly in the form of a horse-shoe),. where the organ loft only appears on common oc casions.

The proportion of beautiful ,women was immense, and the dresses w„ erg so various as to surpass the most variegated bed of tulips. On the Tuesday several liAndred Ladies -could not enter' the Theatre • during the Commemoration, and the : struggle to gain admission was so great that 'many lost their shoes, bracelets, and other ornaments, 'and several were considerably bruised. The ball on the same eveningt was crowded vt itli beauty and fashion, ex .ceeding fifteen Inandred Ladies, notwithstanding .which the dancing was kept up with great spit-it till six o'clock this morning., , The supper was a com plete 'scramble,, and little order could be, kept The Stewards were Lord Delaware and Marquis of Worcester. This evening the Concert at the Shel donian Theatre was attended by upwards, of 1000 Ladies. A new regulation for to-morrjw's Commemora tion is to be adopted, to accommodate the Ladies, and they will be admitted half an hodr before the Gentlemen. The following Noblemen and.

Doctor Bourhe And' Mr., 1 Stevens have been attending Mr. Tidbold, 'and from some. favourable symptoms, there are considerable hopes of his recovery. StllClDE.—Yesterday aft ernoon a Mr., put a period.to his existence, at his lodgings in Suf . - ! tolk-street, Charing-Cross, by cutting his thro it. ! He was a young man e about 2.8 years of age, and held.a situation in the office of the Board of Con- I..troul. • He was taken suddenly ill on Saturday last, in consequence of which his father Was sent for ; and yesterday forenoon he 'attempted to tiirow him self out of the window, but was pre*nted by his father. •In the afternoon, about six o'clock, ire said he wanted to go'doWn stairs; but his father enter- taining some suspicion, followed him. 'His sus picions were too well founded. The.young man bolted into the kitchen, and .laid hold of a large eat ving knife. The father attempted to seize him, but he, being a powerfuryoungmian, cut his father . in a dreadf u l manner acro s s the hand, and threw him to the other side of the 'room. The father called out for assistance, but before 'any person ar *rived, the act of suicide was accomplished. Mr. Thompson, a surgeon, was, the fiist'Who arrived, - and sewed up the wound, but, in about an hour af ter, the e young man elsp:red in great agony. He was much esteemed by all who knew him, and it appeared that he had been seized by a sudden fever and delirium. - • The bedy of a well dressed piling woman was picked up on Tuesday evening in Chelsea Reach, by some fishermen, not having been long in the water. It was Owned yesterday morning, and it turned out to be Jane Sanford,ea nursery maid in a '•Gentle man's family in Parliament-street. She had gone out by permission on Tuesday, but how she came by her death is not known, but it is supposed that she was blown into the rivar, or upset in a boat.— She had 17s, in.her . pocke. • A most shocking accident happened on 'Sunday . • lag, at a village called Ur...' b sandet, about two miles from the opposite shore of Swansea, occasioned by strong lightning, heavy claps of thunder, And tor rents of rain, which.fell during the morning e eind which induced about forty persons to seek sbelter in a mill, which being struck by the lightning, killed - three men (William Hopkins, David Thoinds, 4 and, David Jenki ns ), and wounded a b out twenty other , and we learn anOtherMan has since died; the mide , who was at work, escaped, but the mill was burnt down to the ground. On Saturday se'nnight, a rape was committed in the neighbourhood of Carlisle, attended with rather exttraordinary circumstances, considering the nature of the crime.—Mrs. Sintou, of Dalston Hall, at a late hour in the evening, left her house with an intention of meeting her husband, who had been de tained at Carlisle market, and on returning home She was foll Owed by a young man of. the name of Topping, who lived a servant with Mr. Brough, of the Toll-gate. Topping accompanied. Mrs. S. as far as Brownelson-rigg, and then, without any pre vious indication of ,attention to the lady, knocked her down, beat her in so cruel a manner that her life is despaired of, and immediately violated her person. After he had committed the crime, he te turned home and confessed hi.; guilt-16 an associate, and was in such agony of mind, that he was deter mined to drown himself. The-Culprit has abscond ed, and a reward of guineas is offered for his eaehension.
